Yes, it is America .The natives were conquered .Stop with the denial. These tribes slaughtered each other over land and resources ,so , don't shove this under the rug. This is true and YOU know it . Europeans were the stronger tribe ...period !
Doesnt make it right, the central western Europeans continued to genocide and abuse them people long after they were established. Could have left them alone but once again a pure incident of ignorant greed over stupid yellow shiny rock. Wealth riches, power, not survival. The natives need to rise up and command things in this country again. Im scandinavian and ojibwe and i practice my ancestors religion but goddamnit i will stand with any native groups. And btw it is not america or district of columbia, it is known as turtle island
Writers block cured!! My new western short story.in the 1880s a dress maker heads to town with with new material for his dress shop.hes a white guy(like me) but a racist,insults an old native lady ,her grandson,a 2 spirit,gets mad,and puts together a war party of 2 spirits,and they chase dress maker down and steal wagon of dress making material.they celebrate and make new outfits.
Sweetie, you can befriend us and even marry us (my Fiance'e is white) but to be a Two-Spirit you have to be two things, Indigenous American ("Indian", Native American) and 2ueer (L.G.B.T.) I am a Transsexual Mescalero Apache (Nde) myself, but though you may not be a two spirit you are still my Brother
Just because native people were able to conceptualize the two spirit identity and incorporate it into their culture doesn’t mean it only exists in native people. Two spirit people exist throughout the world. It’s like saying lgbt don’t exist in Syria because the culture doesn’t make room for them. Be inclusive, not exclusive.
@@arianamarieblankenship2722 I am sorry but what traditional values was past down to your? What spirituality have you learn and brought to help your community? In your language do you have a respectful word that is given to you from the ancient ones? what culture, language, songs, and ways of living have you kept alive from your ancestors? When you can relate to Indigenous on any of these levels come prove your point! I am a Two Spirit who not only teach males but also females! What I speak of is much more than a role model.
@@arianamarieblankenship2722 Two-Spirit is a native term that is the English variant of "Berdache" an Ojibwe word. It is NOT a specific identity it means "Native AND Queer".
FrankieJames7 kid all you do is make assumptions and attack. I'm not afraid of a keyboard warrior. All people like you do is focus on the negative and add fuel to the fire. People who are discriminated against should give thanks to the perpetrators to show them how to love. teach peace not war. I have suffered but am not a victim. This victimization of people is weakness. We can either fold or rise to the occasions. I have chosen to rise as a Californian native. kanaka they call me. what do they call you peasant?
i do focus on the negative, add fuel to the fire, but in everything about life you have to look at and account for all things real, even the negative. there is nothing wrong with the truthful teaching that this is our land, infact it is justice. the fight for true justice will never die, no matter how "negative" it is to look at what crimes have been committed by the englanders and americans. my real name is Kenozeedze ofthe GreatLand, and i am an engineer not a peasant. i am going to open up a factory right here on my homeland and invent the first western rifle ever. you, not me, are going to be a peasant for the rest of your life
FrankieJames7 First of all I will be just as proud to die as I am to live. You can not threaten a man of god with heaven. You think you are helping society by creating more weapons? Look at were we are today? Sure I don't believe guns kill but we already have enough. doubt anyone would buy your shit. Again subtracting from society you seek to profit off of just like a politician. I am a healer. Again you don't learn from you mistakes continuing to make assumptions. I am working on a project to produce entirely organic product for babie and children so the can grow up to be healthy Americans. Call me a traitor I call you a fool. I don't take threats lightly. You have a wicked heart. I can see right threw you I need no xray. I'd rather be a warrior in a garden than a keyboard warrior in the middle of ww3. Fool...
Nope. They don't owe CisHet Indian Country and Colonists shit. Expecting gratitude for being given a few crumbs of what you have been consistently denied is ridiculous and offloads responsibility. Bye, Pocahontas.
E Robert, Hila hila nui ia 'oe!! Pono 'ole kou mana'o. If you are Kanaka Māoli, a Hawaiian, shame on you. I'm Both Hawaiian and Native American as well other ethic groups, and you know that is a very European puritan entitled way to think. If you are not Kanaka Māoli, please stop using our language to imply that you are. It's not your toy or decoration. Native people's cultures and languages are not your playthings to throw around to make it seem like you know something. Two spirit people as well as Māhū are part of our society, and will continue to be. I find it sad that we have to make our own space because invaders have inserted their way of thinking into people's thoughts. But I'm encouraged that people are reclaiming what is good about our cultures and celebrating memorializing perpetuating and living it again. I would LOVE to join my Māhū family and be with them! It is true people like you ARE cancers, and destroy so many cultures with your hate. If you do not like this, and it displeases you that much, look elsewhere and stay away. Your obsession, because you must be to look at something that you obviously don't like, makes you look utterly stupid. Hele 'atu e 'ai kae pua'a.
Thank you.
🙏😭 love my brothers and sisters ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing, healing is really so hard and these folks make it look like breathing
That was beautiful. Thank you.
Hooray for two spirit.... from a plain old one spirit. :-)
that's the best reason for dancing i have ever heard! love it
Hiy hiy all my relations, keep dancing to the heart beat of our ancestors lets dance ourselves back to the center.
Two Spirit people existed for a lo----------------ng time. Long before any white men came.
Can you all bring this someday to the big lake?, superior in grand marais? Lots of ojibwa people around where i live.
I teared up. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Thank you for sharing this
Good to see a fellow Southeastern Native in the video too.
This is fantastic.
How nice would the world be if everyone were celebrated this way
people's of my homeland, this is not americas or englands land. we need to start acting like it. no more being scared

@@patsaultz721 is that why europe is crumbling now? Is that why whites are outnumbered out here in the US pick on someone your own size bitch.
@@patsaultz721 You're a fucking full blown racist
@@patsaultz721 If we were conquered, I wouldn't have been able to do this short documentary! Maybe Pat you're conquered!

This is hilarious 🤣
I'm a white American, born in the USA. I consider myself to be spiritual with nature and would like to connect with other 2 spirited people.
